I was looking for some free, unicode compliant,
devanagari font family that has regular, italic and bold variants. I
found
that aksharyogini, CDAC-GISTYogesh, FreeSans and FreeSerif
fit the bill. But, there are different problems with different fonts.
Here is a minimal example with the problems explained with comments.
Yogesh font is OK but

Is there a free font with all the three variants that works
properly?
